Understanding Bill's Daily Biorhythm Chart
Bill Murray is an American actor, comedian, and writer who has made known on Saturday Night Live, and later starred in comedy films as Meatballs, Caddyshack, Stripes, Tootsie, Ghostbusters, Scrooged, What About Bob?, and Groundhog Day.
He was born on Thursday September 21st 1950, in Evanston, Illinois, United States.
The blue line displays Murray's physical self during a 23-day cycle, starting at his date of birth. The physical self measurement is an indicator of his energy levels in terms of coordination, strength, and general well-being. If the blue line is at the top of the chart he is in a physically energized portion of his cycle. If the blue line is at or near the bottom of the chart Bill is in a low point in his physical cycle. High points are an excellent time to take on physically challenging ventures. Low points indicate he may be physically spent and may need to take it easy for a while.
The red line represents Bill Murray's emotional self during a 28-day cycle, in terms of creativity, sensitivity, mood, perception, and awareness. When the red line is near the top of the chart Bill is feeling emotionally strong. His outlook on life tends to be at its best and his interactions with others are most successful. Low points on Murray's emotional line indicate times when he may need to retreat somewhat. Bill Murray is more likely to be depressed during these times. High points indicate times when he will enjoy the company of others and find expressing his feelings the easiest.
The green line tracks Bill's intellectual self over a 33-day cycle, in terms of alertness, analytical functioning, logical analysis skills, memory or recall abilities, and communication. When the green line is near the top of the chart Murray's mental faculties are at their sharpest. This is the time for him to seek solutions requiring logic and analysis. Conversely, at those times when the green line is near the bottom of the chart Bill Murray's intellectual capabilities are at their lowest. Bill might find it prudent to delay work requiring serious thought until he reaches a higher position in his cycle.
The purple line charts Bill Murray's varying intuitive (or compassion) strength at different points during a 38-day cycle. When the purple line is near the top, his powers of intuition are at their strongest. During these times Bill Murray might even experience moments of serendipity. These high points are times when he should be more willing to trust his hunches. When the purple line is near the bottom of the chart, his intuitive powers are at their lowest. At these times Bill Murray might want to shy away from making decisions because "he just knows" and rely on a more analytical approach to decision making.
The aqua line travels the ebb and flow of his 53-day spiritual sensitivity cycle. When the aqua line is at the top of the chart Bill Murray is very in tune with his spiritual self. At these times Bill may reach new heights religiously or experience intense mystical experiences. During periods when the aqua line is near the bottom of the chart Murray is not particularly in sync with the spiritual side of life.
The yellow line traces Bill's aesthetic powers through a 43-day cycle. During periods when the yellow line is at the top of the chart Bill Murray is most open to the arts as well as being at the pinnacle of his own creative powers. The high points are perfect times for Murray to express his creative self. During periods when the yellow line is at the bottom of the chart he is not nearly as in touch with his creative self. During these times Bill Murray might do well to put his energies into things that do not require large amounts of creativity.
The orange line follows the flux in Murray's level of self-awareness in cycle of 48 days each. At times the orange line is near the top of the chart he is most in tune with himself. During these periods Bill Murray can experience profound moments of self-discovery. During periods in his cycle when the orange line is near the bottom of the chart Murray is not nearly as connected to his inner-self.
About Biorhythm
Our rhythmic biological cycles are said to control or initiate various biological processes and are classically composed of three cyclic rhythms that are said to govern human behavior and demonstrate innate periodicity in natural physiological change: the physical, the emotional, and the intellectual (mental) cycles.

On Friday, an association of e-book publishers—including major companies such as Harper Collins, Random House, and Barnes & Noble—issued a statement suggesting an outline for a new "Lightweight DRM." This proposed Digital Rights Management standard could increase interoperability of books on hardware like e-readers.
Don't get excited yet—the outline was only an invitation to a conversation that the association, called the International Digital Publishing Forum, wants to have. Still, it suggests the traditionally conservative publishing industry is learning how to do business in the Internet era. Hopefully, publishing is realizing something that the music industry has known for years: DRM is dead.
Of course, publishers aren't giving up entirely on DRM yet—they just want a different kind. But the IDPF suggested version of content management doesn't require a lot of proprietary hardware or software to decrypt e-books (like the system we have today). In DRM's current incarnation, books bought on a Kindle won't work on a Nook, and books purchased on a Nook won't work on a Kobo.
In the Friday statement, prepared by Bill Rosenblatt of Giant Steps Media Technology Strategies, the IDPF said a lightweight DRM option would lower production costs in terms of providing secure hardware and robust software. It would also reduce intensive client-server interactions. And of course, the IDPF suggested a new format would be favorable to consumers because it would be easier to use and understand.
The IDPF also said that content distributors (like Amazon and Barnes & Noble) are not clearly gaining when publishers use content protection. DRM, "is subject to a single over-arching limitation: the entities that want DRM (i.e., publishers and copyright owners) do not typically pay for it," Rosenblatt wrote for the IDPF. "Instead, the cost of DRM is usually passed on to content distributors and retailers. Apart from its use for 'lock-in,' these downstream entities have no incentive to protect content other than as a contractual obligation to content licensors. Thus it is understandable that distributors and retailers have been highly reluctant to pay for DRM-related features that do not directly benefit them."
Earlier this year, J.K. Rowling released her Harry Potter series without a heavy DRM standard—instead the books are digitally "watermarked", by stamping the user's name and the time of purchase. That way, people who share the books illegally are theoretically traceable. People who want to lend the book to friends, or read the same book across many devices, have that freedom. Science fiction publisher Tor Books, which is owned by publishing giant Macmillan, recently ditched DRM as well.
This publisher resistance to heavy-duty content restrictions is not really about goodwill as it is about good business. It seems more people will buy e-books if they can transfer them between devices, or if DRM was easier to understand. At a recent conference held by the Digital Public Library of America, Internet Archive founder Brewster Kahle answered an audience member who asked "what will it take for publishers to nix DRM?"
"Wanting to have a business at the end of the day?" Kahle answered sarcastically.
The new DRM that Rosenblatt and the IDPF suggested would involve more than simple watermarking, which is not totally protected by laws that prevent the circumvention of a copyright holder's protections. The IDPF proposal would involve fewer restrictions than the varied proprietary encryption processes that pepper publisher content today. Rosenblatt often referenced PDF as an example of a format that lightly encrypts the document and prevents users from making modifications. That's not to say the IDPF imagines that any new specifications would be enough to deter piracy: "To be very clear on this point: we expect that a lightweight DRM (in reality, any DRM) will be cracked, and we are relying on anticircumvention law for some level of crack protection," the statement read.
The IDPF noted that it would prefer to build the new format out of existing technologies, but would consider building an entirely new format altogether if there were interest. And, if such a standard were agreed upon, content distributors and reading system suppliers would be required to license the EPUB LCP [Lightweight Content Protection] format before getting access to the specifications. So there's no telling if a new format would actually reform the fractured DRM system, as publishing companies would have to scrap their current DRM system and license the new one first. The Forum is currently requesting comments from "members and interested parties."

Two jurors in the Jerry Sandusky trial open up about what they witnessed in the courtroom and how they reached their decision in the case.
Joshua Harper says he viewed the victims as credible, and was watching Sandusky's reaction to the witness testimony. "It seemed to be he was kind of reminiscing of the victims...he would kind of lean in towards them...like he was thinking about the victims and his behavior with them," said Harper.
Ann Van Kuren says she did want to see Sandusky testify. She believes the victims' compelling testimony was the most critical evidence in the case.
Are we to Now believe that NONE of the football players knew what was going on with THEIR coaches? News of divorces, affairs, perverts, homosexuals etc spread faster than a wild fire except this fire was covered with a blanket and evidently swept way under the carpet. HOGWASH Penn State, everyone of the staff, alumni, board of trustees, teachers and students knew just about everything that Sandusky was doing but NOT ONE person had the guts to go to the law about it. Why, because there is a group that runs Penn State University and it wouldn't have been healthy to go against them. The NCAA needs to make the punishment fit the crime(s) because everyone in charge knew what was going on.
Give me 10 murder cases instead of one case like this wherein it's purely based on narrative accounts for me to be a jury member in. In murder cases, some form of objective evidence has to be presented that would pass the 'beyond a reasonable doubt' test. I just hope and pray that the decision of the jury is the correct one.
I completely agree that Sandusky should be punished to the fullest extent of the law, as should ANYONE who was directly involved. But punish Penn State athletes and students who weren't even in college at the time of the incidents? That's absurd and unfair.
No one is directly punishing students and athletes. They may suffer some penalties, but this is only because the sports program and administration were colluding at the very highest level to cover-up sex abuse. I am sorry but an organization suffers when its leadership engages in illegal and unethical conduct. It's collateral damage.
I wish jurors would not say these things–or even give these interviews. Would not such a statement as "He looked creepy" help Sandusky's appeal? The fact that he did not testify, also, is a fact not in evidence. Am I wrong about this?
I agree with Kyle. It's too early to giving this much info. about the JS's case.
Actually no, it won't be useful for the defense on appeal. Once a jury is released as this one is, there is no further requirement that they remain quiet about the case. The conviction and details of the defense and prosecution are a matter of public record. There is therefore no limitation on free speech unless the case was sealed. This case was not sealed by the judge. The juries comments are no foul.
Sandusky don't have to testify and it cant be held against him. The juror didnt say that we found him guilty because he did not testify, she did not even say that we leaned towards guilty because of it. She simply said that I would have liked to see him testifying. What all jurors have said is that we found victims and prosecution witnesses very credible.
They can say that they found Sandusky's behavior creepy. Because the way a person hold him/herself in court can be used in determining Sundusky's fate. Looking Sundusky's behavior is no different then looking witnesses behavior!
No need to see ghosts where there are non!
The fact that Sandusky did not testify IS in evidence. The jurors know whether he testified or not. They were there for the whole trial and he never took the stand.
What I would like to know is WHERE IS THE NCAA?......Its pretty obvious that certain people KNEW about what was going on and did nothing for the better part of a decade, maby 2 decades....And what went on is the WORST OF THE WORST!!!! Heavy sanctions should be placed on Penn State, 2 years Death Penalty for Football or 10 years no post season IN ALL SPORTS....Hey, dont blame me, blame Sandusky, Spanier, Hurley and Paterno. That's right Jo PA!..He knew and STILL let Sandusky bring kids to that facility and nobody will ever convience me otherwise.
totally agree.
I do believe that to a certain extent Coach Paterno was negligent in not following up on the "activities" in the JS situation. But I think that JS was very, very guilty in doing what he did to begin with. If he had kept stuff in his pants and hands to himself to begin with, there would have been nothing to report!!
With all the publicitiy caesud by the accidental release of the grand jury report, it's going to be difficult now to seperate the real victims from those who are more interested in collecting monetary damages first and foremost.It's really a shame no one is taking much interest in finding out exactly how the presentment got into the public domain before the charges were filed and a trial held. I'd venture to say there's no area of the state that doesn't have some connection to Penn State either through branch campuses, sports fans or alumni. After all the sensationalism, where is the AG going to find an unbiased Pennsylavania jury? They are going to have move this trial to some remote town in Idaho unless Sandusky saves them the trouble by taking a plea deal.
Who is paying for Sandusky's legal fees and for the appeal? Follow the money and the strings.
His face looked the way it did during the trial because he is an empty shell - there is no emotion there, no grey matter, no intellect. Did he ever grow up? Something is wrong with him intellectually. Like dense, or slow.
In his book Sandusky wrote : I am a overgrown kid who lives a good part of my life in a make believe world.
I enjoy pretending I am a kid, and I love doing the same as an adult with these kids...
Does that say enough ???

Tremont Village Board OKs deal to buy property that housed meth lab
TREMONT — More than a year after a police raid left a meth house in Tremont vacant, the Village Board is taking on the task of cleaning up the abandoned property.
The Village Board approved terms on a deal to buy the lot at 313 N. Locust St. at its July 7 meeting, though Village Board President Todd Bong refused to release the terms of the agreement, including the sale price, until the property deal is closed. He expects that to happen Tuesday.
Police raided the house in May 2013 and discovered a meth lab inside. The house was owned by Robert Perez, 51, who lived there with his 17-year-old child, and who allowed Darren M. White, 28, to operate the meth lab in his home.
White pleaded guilty Monday to aggravated manufacturing of meth and received a 17½-year prison sentence. In September, Jessica Sowell, 31, of Havana received a 12-year sentence and M. Zachary Johnson, 27, of Tremont received an eight-year sentence after pleading guilty to aggravated meth manufacturing. They both admitted to providing White with the ingredients to cook the meth.
White's father, Darren T. White, 47, of Pekin received four years of probation and Perez received a two-year probation sentence.
Meanwhile, the neighbors of the Tremont home have dealt with living next to an unsightly, neglected and abandoned property.
Bong said that while the bank began the foreclosure process on the property, the village secured the house to prevent break-ins. Also, the Tazewell County Health Department has been to visit the house in response to several complaints from residents.
The board does not want to wait any longer for a private investor to take care of the problem. Instead, the board has opted for an approach Bong said he believes will be cost-neutral.
"We have not made a final decision on what to do with it," Bong said. "We'll either put it up for sale or remove the house completely and sell the lot so we can recoup our costs. I think that's our intent at this point. The house has been sitting empty for 14 months and the electricity has been off for a year, so you can imagine what it looks like inside.
"I think we will recoup our costs, and we will be doing what's right for the neighborhood and the good of the town."
The threat of contamination from dangerous chemicals in the house is not an issue, Bong said, because the cooking method used by White was not the sort of method that releases a lot of noxious chemicals into the air. The house will have to be inspected for problems such as the possible presence of asbestos and bad electrical wiring.

Those hoping to spend the holiday watching streaming video from Netflix can now get back in front of their TVs, tablets and PCs after a Christmas Eve outage.
A Netflix Inc. spokesman said by email Tuesday morning that the service has been fully restored.
The outage affected customers in the Americas starting around 12:30 p.m. PST on Monday. The company, which is based in Los Gatos, Calif., blames problems with Amazon Web Services, and says it is investigating further.
Amazon Web Services provides companies with online storage and computing. It is separate from Seattle-based Amazon.com Inc.'s better-known shopping website.
Amazon says that problems with its service have also now been fixed.

HP is buying big into the Windows 8 touch notebook concept, as demonstrated by three models announced Thursday. One tablet-hybrid model and two notebooks will debut in time for the holiday season, combining the traditional keyboard and touchpad laptop interactions with the Metro-optimized Windows 8 touchscreen.
The HP Envy X2 is the most intriguing of the models, with an 11.6-inch tablet that detaches from a notebook-like keyboard base. The Envy X2 has an 8-megapixel rear camera, 720p front-facing camera, and a 64GB solid-state drive contained in the tablet half of the body. The IPS tablet screen weighs 1.5 pounds, and the tablet and keyboard base weigh a total of 3.1 pounds. The tablet is also NFC-enabled, which allows users to "share content, including photos, contacts and URLs with a simple tap."
The HP Spectre XT TouchSmart Ultrabook, at 17.9 millimeters thick and weighing 4.77 pounds is a more conventional notebook, that follows in the steps of the Envy Spectre we tested at CES 2012, though with a fully Metro-capable touch screen. Ports on the model include Gigabit Ethernet, USB 3.0, and HDMI. The base model is priced at $1,399, though it includes only a 500GB hard drive with 32GB of flash cache—options with a 128GB or 256GB solid-state drive cost extra.
A more graphics-intensive Ultrabook, the HP Envy TouchSmart Ultrabook 4, has an option to include a discrete AMD graphics card with up to 2GB of memory. The model has a 14-inch touch screen, measures 23 millimeters thick, and weighs 4.77 pounds, like the 15-inch Ultrabook above, though it clocks 8 hours of battery life. Like the 15-inch TouchSmart Ultrabook, the 14-inch version will have the option to use either an HDD with flash cache (500GB storage) or an SSD (128GB).
All three notebooks are expected to be available in the US for the holidays, and only the 15-inch TouchSmart Ultrabook has an announced starting price point of $1,399.

Kuraan of Sudan
Topic: 1 of 3
Miracles: Deliverances
Words have little meaning, especially in places where physical needs are great. It takes the miraculous to capture the hearts of the people. In places where embracing Christianity means abuse and persecution, believers need to be sure they have accepted the real God.
Ask for miracles to confirm the truth of the Gospel, that deceptions would be shattered, and believers would be strong in their faith.
Mt 10:8 Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.
Lord, how awesome are Your deeds! There is no one who is mighty like You. You are Lord over all the nations of the earth. You have made the heavens, the earth and everything on it, the seas and all is in them. Let the whole earth be filled with Your glory.
Lord, just as You sent out Your first disciples with power to heal the sick, raise the dead, and drive out demons, I ask You to freely give that same authority to
Kuraan of Sudan
as he goes in Your name. Establish Your name as the name above all names among those who hear Your word. Cause every demon to flee at the name of Jesus, that all would know that You are Lord over all the earth. Let Your Gospel go forth with power, and testify to the truth of Your salvation.

From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...We had a lovely dinner this evening. The folks at Hearst Ranch sent us samples of their delicious grass-fed flank steaks and they were the inspiration for tonight's border-style feast.
A drawing, sponsored by the team at Foodie Blogroll, brought the steaks to our table. The first 25 people who entered the drawing "won" and I happened to get lucky. Be sure to check the Foodie Blogroll to see what other opportunities they have found for their members.
I love flank steak and wanted to use special recipes to make the most of this wonderful treat. We used the first of the steaks tonight in a spicy Southwestern creation that we really liked. I think you will too. Just a reminder that flank steak should be tenderized and cooked quickly. I used a jaccard to tenderize our steak and cooked it in a screaming-hot cast iron skillet for about 3 minutes per side. Cast iron retains heat and the steaks continued to cook as the meat rested. I let ours sit, tented in foil, for about 10 minutes before slicing the meat against the grain. Prior to cooking, I marinated the steak in a mixture of mashed chipotle chilies and lime juice. To cool the heat a bit, I made a sauce with Mexican crema (Mexican sour cream) and a mild salsa verde. It was one of those off-the-cuff combinations that really worked. The quality of this beef is amazing and I urge you to give Hearst Ranch meat a try. You won't be sorry. Here's the recipe I used for the first steak. I'll have another to share with you next week.
Sizzling Southwestern Flank Steak with Creamy Salsa Verde...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon mashed chipotle chiles from a can of chipotles in adobo sauce
1/4 to 1/2 cup salsa verde
3/4 cup Mexican crema or sour cream
1/4 cup whole milk
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Salt and pepper
1 (1-1/2 to 1-1/2 pounds) flank steak
Optional garnish: chopped green tomatoes, cilantro sprigs, lime wedges
1) Combine mashed peppers and fresh lime juice in a blender jat. Puree. Pour into a pan large enough to hold flank steak. Turn to coat both sides with marinade, cover with plastic wrap and chill for 1 to 8 hours.
2) When ready to proceed, combine salsa verde, crema, milk and cilantro in a blender jar. Puree. Transfer contents to a small pot and heat very gently just to warm. Do not allow sauce to boil.
3) Scrape marinade from steak. Pat dry and season each side with salt and pepper. Heat a large cast iron skillet over high heat. Add vegetable oil and heat until smoking hot. Add flank steak and cook for 3 minutes per side. Remove pan from heat, but tent with foil and let rest for 10 minutes. Transfer steak to a cutting board and slice crosswise on the diagonal. Garnish if desired. Serve steak with creamy salsa verde. Yield: 3 to 4 servings.

Today's Keno results are in. Here are the winning numbers for Saturday March 18, 2023
You can find the latest Keno results below. At Born2Invest, we pride ourselves in bringing your Keno results first, as soon as the numbers are drawn.
So these are your Keno results for Saturday March 18, 2023:
Does your ticket match the winning numbers? If yes, congratulations to you, the lucky winner. If no, please remember to come back to this section on Born2Invest at the next drawing date.
We'd also recommend that you check out some non-lottery gaming options like those offered by top gaming operators Savarona Casino, Roku Casino or 24Bettle. There is no shortage of gaming action if you know where to look.
There's no surefire way to win the lottery, not without cheating anyway. Despite this the internet is full of bogus tips and tricks to win the lottery that do nothing for your chances. Every longtime lottery player knows that you can't predict the numbers, you just need to buy your ticket and hope for the best.
That doesn't mean there aren't some ways you can give yourself an edge.
- Make a lottery pool: Why go it alone when you can team up with friends? Lottery pools are a fun way to increase your chances by combining your resources and agreeing to split any jackpot. It's a great way to inject some more fun into the lottery by sharing the experience while also increasing your odds!
- Pick unpopular numbers: Most people use the same set of "lucky numbers". Superstition aside this can backfire if you win. By picking rare numbers you increase the chances that you will be the only winner, significantly increase your winnings, this is doubly true if you're part of a lottery pool.
- Play the odds: You need to understand the odds of any game you're playing. Make sure to read the rules and regulations so you know what you're getting into. For example fixed-odds lotteries often result in split jackpots. Another interesting option are scratch games, which have significantly higher chances of winning despite the lower payouts.
- Take the second chance : Most lotteries offer players a second chance to win. Simply fill out the form on the back of the ticket, pop it in the mail, and cross your fingers. It doesn't take much time and gives you another bite at the cherry, it's a no-brainer!
Did you know that?
- Lottery-funded films have scored 14 Oscars and 32 BAFTAs. Examples: The King's Speech, Billy Elliot, and The Last King of Scotland all raised funds via the UK's National Lottery.
- In the US, a total of 11 states have reported earning more tax revenue from lottery sales than from income tax.
- According to the National Endowment for Financial Education, up to 70% of all lottery winners lose it all within a few years after winning their windfall. 44% of the winners of the UK National Lottery go bankrupt within a few years according to research firm The Camelot Group.
- Winning the lottery does not necessarily make you any happier. According to researchers from Northwestern University and the University of Massachusetts, the findings are as follows: "Eventually, the thrill of winning the lottery will itself wear off. If all things are judged by the extent to which they depart from a baseline of past experience, gradually even the most positive events will cease to have impact as they themselves are absorbed into the new baseline against which further events are judged."
- It may be a good idea to never talk about your lottery winnings. One New York state trust attorney puts it best: "The bigger problem arises when there is an oral (usually flippant) promise to share the proceeds."
The lottery has always generated a healthy dose of humor and cynicism among the who's who. A couple of salient examples for today:
"I've done the calculation and your chances of winning the lottery are identical whether you play or not." (Fran Lebowitz)
"There may be less of a chance of losing all the money you put into a mutual fund than there is of losing all the money you put into lottery tickets, but you're never going to win big in a mutual fund." (Robert Kiyosaki)

Leather & Care
Your MIOW Shoes & Bags is made from 100% leather that will last if cared for in the correct manner.
We recommend that you take the following tips to get the most of your Miow Shoes & Bags:
- Please avoid using your item in heavy rain.
- If the leather does get wet, wipe off any water and allow it to dry in room temperature.
- You may stuff white wrapping paper into the bag or shoe to keep it's shape while drying.
- Following this we suggest you apply a protection cream to help repel water and nourish the leather, however please keep in mind to test the cream on a hidden section of your bag or shoe first.
- Leather is durable but not indestructible.
- Exposure to extreme cold or heat and improper care or cleaning can crack and dry leather and affect the color and finish.
- With prolong exposure to direct sunlight, the color of your leather bag or sandals may fade.
- With care, your bag will age beautifully over time, this is normal as it is a natural product. You may try using Vaseline over minor scuffs and abrasions on your bag.
- Please be aware that strong colored dyes in the leather may transfer across to light colored clothing and the reverse holds true - we cannot accept responsibility when this happens.
- Metallic Care - Due to the process at tanneries and the delicate nature of the metallic finish some surface finishing may rub off with time and abrasion.
- With exposure to salt and snow, a quick wipe down with a soft cloth whenever it occurs, and keeping the leather healthy with conditioners as needed.
- Thorough cleaning of your bag and shoes may be done every month or so. It's good to do a light conditioning and buff down during this time too.
simple action will preserve your leather bags and shoes for years to come and enjoy.
Leather & Cleaning
- Remove dirt and dust by wiping and buffing with a soft cloth.
- Apply a small dollop of leather cleaner to the dry soft cloth first.
- Always test the cream on a hidden section of your bag or shoe first, wait for it to dry to ascertain the color stays true.
- Leather is permeable and many creams may change the color of the leather slightly, if you are comfortable with that, you may continue.
- Buff the surface in a gentle circular motion, allowing for small to bigger circles and the leather to absorb the cleaner / cream.
Leather & Condition
- Think of conditioning as a moisturizer for your leather, which is a natural product and will dry out without care.
- To prevent crinkles and wrinkling, dab a dollop of conditioner on a soft cloth and rub gently all over.
- Try leather creams and oils available in the market, which will supplement the natural oils of leather. Leave on for 15 minutes, then wipe off the excess with a dry cloth.
- Natural dry in an airy room.
- Condition every 1 to 3 months to keep your leather soft and supple.
Suede & Cleaning
Using a soft suede brush, make sure your bag or shoes are dry.
Suede has a beautiful soft grain that is best cleaned with a soft brush, which you can also purchase as a suede cleaning kit.
Suede is very sensitive to water; so basic dirt and scuffmarks are best dealt with when the shoes are dry.
Brush gently to remove dirt and dust.
Use the suede cleaning brush to lightly brush away dust or dirt that has accumulated on your shoes and bag.
Do not go back and forth: try brushing repeatedly towards the same direction pushing the dirt off.
Once you get off this layer of grime, your shoes will already look much better with a brushed look along it's grain.
When the suede is scuffed, the suede's grain can get pressed down in one direction. By brushing scuffed areas gently back and forth you may lift it's grain.
This is best done with a soft suede brush.
- For scuffs that are just too matted down to respond to the brush, try scraping the area with a knife or emery board to lift the nap.
- Scuffs that wont brush out can often be removed by rubbing with a pencil eraser or a piece of crinkled rubber that many shoe soles are made from.
- Start with gentle pressure and increase pressure as required on tougher marks and scuffs.
Suede & Protect
Protecting your suede.
Once they are clean or when you first have them, spray a coat of suede protector on your suede bag and shoes.
This will give a protective layer and help prevent stains and scuff marks.
Leather/ Suede & Storage
- Store your MIOW Shoes & Bags in its original Miow dust bag and fill it with stuffing—use white wrapping paper, never newspaper, which will smear— to maintain its shape.
- Keep in the dust-bag along with several packets of silica gel so your leather / suede purchase does not get damp. Keep in your room or a place that has air circulation to prevent the growth of mold.
- Every 3 to 6 months; clean / and conditioned as recommended above for your leather or suede item, air dry before re storing.
- This will keep your leather item in good condition for years into decades to be cherished and even handed down.
LASTLY, Enjoy your MIOW product, with use and care it will be a cherished part of your wardrobe.
Style you own,

Introduction to Genetics and EvolutionAdd to Favourites
Introduction to Genetics and Evolution is a college-level class being offered simultaneously to new students at Duke University. The course gives interested people a very basic overview of some principles behind these very fundamental areas of biology. We often hear about new "genome sequences," commercial kits that can tell you about your ancestry (including pre-human) from your DNA or disease predispositions, debates about the truth of evolution, why animals behave the way they do, and how people found "genetic evidence for natural selection." This course provides the basic biology you need to understand all of these issues better, tries to clarify some misconceptions, and tries to prepare students for future, more advanced coursework in Biology (and especially evolutionary genetics). No prior coursework is assumed.

Country superstar George Jones dead at 81
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — When it comes to country music, George Jones was The Voice.
Other great singers have come and gone, but this fact remained inviolate until Jones passed away Friday at 81 in a Nashville hospital after a year of ill health.
"Today someone else has become the greatest living singer of traditional country music, but there will never be another George Jones," said Bobby Braddock, the Country Music Hall of Fame songwriter who provided Jones with 29 songs over the decades. "No one in country music has influenced so many other artists."
He did it with that voice. Rich and deep, strong enough to crack like a whip, but supple enough to bring tears. It was so powerful, it made Jones the first thoroughly modern country superstar, complete with the substance abuse problems and rich-and-famous celebrity lifestyle that included mansions, multiple divorces and — to hear one fellow performer tell it — fistfuls of cocaine.
He was a beloved and at times a notorious figure in Nashville and his problems were just as legendary as his songs. But when you dropped the needle on one of his records, all that stuff went away. And you were left with The Voice.
"He just knows how to pull every drop of emotion out of it of the songs if it's an emotional song or if it's a fun song he knows how to make that work," Alan Jackson said in a 2011 interview. "It's rare. He was a big fan of Hank Williams Sr. like me. He tried to sing like Hank in the early days. I've heard early cuts. And the difference is Hank was a singer and he was a great writer, but he didn't have that natural voice like George. Not many people do. That just sets him apart from everybody."
That voice helped Jones achieve No. 1 songs in five separate decades, 1950s to 1990s. And its qualities were admired by more than just his fellow country artists but by Frank Sinatra, Pete Townshend, Elvis Costello, James Taylor and countless others. "If we all could sound like we wanted to, we'd all sound like George Jones," Waylon Jennings once sang.
Word of his death spread Friday morning as his peers paid tribute.
Merle Haggard put it best, perhaps: "The world has lost the greatest country singer of all time. Amen."
"The greatest voice to ever grace country music will never die," Garth Brooks said. "Jones has a place in every heart that ever loved any kind of music."
And Dolly Parton added, "My heart is absolutely broken. George Jones was my all time favorite singer and one of my favorite people in the world."
In Jones' case, that's not hyperbole. In a career that lasted more than 50 years, "Possum" evolved from young honky-tonker to elder statesman as he recorded more than 150 albums and became the champion and symbol of traditional country music, a well-lined link to his hero, Williams.
Jones survived long battles with alcoholism and drug addiction, brawls, accidents and close encounters with death, including bypass surgery and a tour bus crash that he only avoided by deciding at the last moment to take a plane.
His failure to appear for concerts left him with the nickname "No Show Jones," and he later recorded a song by that name and often opened his shows by singing it. His wild life was revealed in song and in his handsome, troubled face, with its dark, deep-set eyes and dimpled chin.
In song, like life, he was rowdy and regretful, tender and tragic. His hits included the sentimental "Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes," the foot-tapping "The Race is On," the foot-stomping "I Don't Need Your Rockin' Chair," the melancholy "She Thinks I Still Care," the rockin' "White Lightning," and the barfly lament "Still Doing Time." Jones also recorded several duets with Tammy Wynette, his wife for six years, including "Golden Ring," ''Near You," ''Southern California" and "We're Gonna Hold On." He also sang with such peers as Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard and with Costello and other rock performers.
But his signature song was "He Stopped Loving Her Today," a weeper among weepers about a man who carries his love for a woman to his grave. The 1980 ballad, which Jones was sure would never be a hit, often appears on surveys as the most popular country song of all time and won the Country Music Association's song of the year award an unprecedented two years in a row.
Jones won Grammy awards in 1981 for "He Stopped Loving Her Today" and in 1999 for "Choices." He was elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1992 and in 2008 was among the artists honored in Washington at the Kennedy Center.
He was in the midst of a yearlong farewell tour when he passed away. He was scheduled to complete the tour in November with an all-star packed tribute in Nashville. Stars lined up to sign on to the show, many remembering kindnesses over the years. Kenny Chesney thinks Jones may have one of the greatest voices in not just country history, but music history. But he remembers Jones for more than the voice. He was picked for a tour with Jones and Wynette early in his career and cherishes the memory of being invited to fly home on Jones' private jet after one of the concerts.
"I remember sitting there on that jet, thinking, 'This can't be happening,' because he was George Jones, and I was some kid from nowhere," Chesney said in an email. "I'm sure he knew, but he was generous to kids chasing the dream, and I never forgot it."
Jones was born Sept. 12, 1931, in a log house near the east Texas town of Saratoga, the youngest of eight children. He sang in church and at age 11 began performing for tips on the streets of Beaumont, Texas. His first outing was such a success that listeners tossed him coins, placed a cup by his side and filled it with money. Jones estimated he made more than $24 for his two-hour performance, enough to feed his family for a week, but he used up the cash at a local arcade.
"That was my first time to earn money for singing and my first time to blow it afterward," he recalled in "I Lived to Tell it All," a painfully self-critical memoir published in 1996. "It started what almost became a lifetime trend."
The family lived in a government-subsidized housing project, and his father, a laborer, was an alcoholic who would rouse the children from bed in the middle of the night to sing for him. His father also noted that young George liked music and bought him a Gene Autry guitar, with a horse and lariat on the front that Jones practiced on obsessively.
He got his start on radio with husband and wife team Eddie & Pearl in the late 1940s. Hank Williams once dropped by the studio to promote a new record, and Jones was invited to back him on guitar. When it came time to play, he froze.
"Hank had 'Wedding Bells' out at the time," Jones recalled in a 2003 Associated Press interview. "He started singing it, and I never hit the first note the whole song. I just stared."
After the first of his four marriages failed, he enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1951 and served three years. He cut his first record when he got out, an original fittingly called "No Money in This Deal."
He had his first hit with "Why Baby Why" in 1955, and by the early '60s Jones was one of country music's top stars.
"I sing top songs that fit the hardworking, everyday loving person. That's what country music is about," Jones said in a 1991 AP interview. "My fans and real true country music fans know I'm not a phony. I just sing it the way it is and put feeling in it if I can and try to live the song."
Jones was married to Wynette, his third wife, from 1969 to 1975. (Wynette died in 1998.) Their relationship played out in Nashville like a country song, with hard drinking, fights and reconciliations. Jones' weary knowledge of domestic warfare was immortalized in such classics as "The Battle," set to the martial beat of "The Battle Hymn of the Republic."
After one argument, Jones drove off on a riding mower in search of a drink because Wynette had taken his car keys to keep him from carousing. Years earlier, married to his second wife, he had also sped off on a mower in search of a drink. Jones referred to his mowing days in the 1996 release, "Honky Tonk Song," and poked fun at himself in a Big & Rich video that featured him pulling up to a party aboard a mower.
His drug and alcohol abuse grew worse in the late '70s, and Jones had to file for bankruptcy in 1978. A manager had started him on cocaine, hoping to counteract his boozy, lethargic performances, and Jones was eventually arrested in Jackson, Miss., in 1983 on cocaine possession charges. He agreed to perform a benefit concert and was sentenced to six months probation. In his memoir, "Satan is Real," Charlie Louvin recounts being offered a fistful of cocaine by Jones backstage at a concert.
"In the 1970s, I was drunk the majority of the time," Jones wrote in his memoir. "If you saw me sober, chances are you saw me asleep."
In 1980, a 3-minute song changed his life. His longtime producer, Billy Sherrill, recommended he record "He Stopped Loving Her Today," a ballad by Braddock and Curly Putnam. The song took more than a year to record, partly because Jones couldn't master the melody, which he confused with Kris Kristofferson's "Help Me Make it Through the Night," and partly because he was too drunk to recite a brief, spoken interlude ("She came to see him one last time/And we all wondered if she would/And it kept running through my mind/This time he's over her for good.")
"Pretty simple, eh?" Jones wrote in his memoir. "I couldn't get it. I had been able to sing while drunk all of my life. I'd fooled millions of people. But I could never speak without slurring when drunk. What we needed to complete that song was the narration, but Billy could never catch me sober enough to record four simple spoken lines."
Jones was convinced the song was too "morbid" to catch on. But "He Stopped Loving Her Today," featuring a string section that hummed, then soared, became an instant standard and virtually canonized him. His concert fee jumped from $2,500 a show to $25,000.
"There is a God," he recalled.

Energy-Saving Home Networks
In 88 million homes across the United States, digital content flows through high-speed modems and routers, streaming our videos, pinging e-mail into our in-boxes—and consuming 8.3 billion kWh of electricity. All of that energy comes with a $1 billion price tag as household small networks guzzle power around the clock, even when our gadgets hibernate and we sleep. The toll to the planet comes in at 5 million metric tons of CO2, which is equal to the annual tailpipe emissions of 1.1 million vehicles.
The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) and its consultant Ecova recently partnered to determine the energy use of residential small-network equipment and how much can be saved with more-efficient designs. To evaluate the power use of America's small networks, we tested 60 models from a wide range of manufacturers, in homes and in the laboratory.
We found that the most efficient models use one-third less energy than average models, and that replacing today's wasteful equipment with more-efficient models could save 2.8 billion kWh of electricity annually, (about $330 million in customer energy bills).

Download the NRDC study, "Small Network Equipment Energy Consumption in U.S. Homes—Using Less Energy to Connect Electronic Devices."
Fortunately, there are more-efficient options on the horizon. In addition, EPA's Energy Star program is finalizing its specifications for small-network equipment, and soon the Energy Star label will help customers choose efficient models and Internet providers that offer energy-saving network equipment in their subscription packages.

New Additions to ASHRAE Handbook
Outdated internal equipment heat gain data can result in oversized systems and higher operating costs, yet it is one of the most difficult areas for engineers to define.
To assist the building environment industry in defining these loads and designing more cost-efficient systems, internal equipment heat gain and load density data have been updated in the newest edition of the ASHRAE Handbook.
The flagship of ASHRAE's Handbook series is the 2013 ASHRAE Handbook—Fundamentals. Its 39 chapters cover basic principles and data used in the HVAC and refrigeration industry. They include updated information on building materials, load calculations, energy resources and analysis, refrigerants, indoor environmental quality sustainability, controls, duct and piping system design, and more.
Specifically, the climatic design content of 2013 Fundamentals has been expanded to include data from nearly 900 more worldwide reporting stations than were cited in the 2009 edition—a 16% increase. Chapter 14, "Climatic Design Information," now contains temperature and humidity design conditions and related information for 6,443 locations in the United States, Canada, and other countries around the world. The increase in the number of reporting stations is a result of research conducted by ASHRAE Research Project 1613.
"The increased number of stations, particularly noticeable in North and Central America (+ 26%), results in a better geographical coverage and enables designers to find a station closer to the location for which a building is designed," says Didier Thevenard, chair of ASHRAE Technical Committee 4.2, Climatic Information. Each station's data now also include monthly precipitation, used in particular to determine climate zones in Standard 90.1. The method and supporting data to calculate solar irradiance during clear-sky conditions were also updated.
learn more
To order the 2013 Handbook, contact ASHRAE Customer Service at (800)527-4723.
Other new information can be found in Chapter 2, "Thermodynamics and Refrigeration Cycles"; Chapter 5, "Two-Phase Flow"; Chapter 9, "Thermal Comfort"; Chapter 10, "Indoor Environmental Health"; Chapter 11, "Air Contaminants"; Chapter 16, "Ventilation and Infiltration"; Chapter 19, "Energy Estimating and Modeling Methods"; Chapter 21, "Duct Design"; Chapter 23, "Insulation for Mechanical Systems"; Chapter 25, "Heat, Air and Moisture Control in Building Assemblies—Fundamentals"; Chapter 26, "Heat, Air and Moisture Control in Building Assemblies—Material Properties"; Chapter 27, "Heat, Air and Moisture Control in Building Assemblies—Examples"; Chapter 29, "Refrigerants"; Chapter 30, "Thermophysical Properties of Refrigerants"; and Chapter 36, "Measurement and Instruments."
Chapters in the ASHRAE Handbook are updated based on the experience of members of ASHRAE technical committees, and on the results of ASHRAE research reported at ASHRAE conferences and published in ASHRAE special publications and in ASHRAE Transactions.
Households Living in Apartments Use 50% Less Energy
A recent study conducted by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) reports that apartments in buildings with five or more units use less energy than other types of home.
Thirty percent of new-home starts in 2012 were in apartment buildings with five or more units, the highest percentage since 1986 and up sharply from 18% in 2009 and 2010, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. About 17% of households (19 million) lived in apartment buildings with five or more units in 2009, up from 13% (11 million) in 1980, but they accounted for only 9% of home energy use in both years. Over the same period, single-family homes maintained a steady share of total households, but their share of total home energy use went up. Apartments in smaller buildings have declined as a share of both households and energy use, and mobile homes remain a small segment of the residential sector.
Households in apartment buildings with five or more units use much less energy than the average for all households, and those in newer units use even less energy than those in older ones. As recent new construction joins the housing stock and older buildings fall out, energy use per household in large apartment buildings will probably continue to decline.
Households living in apartment buildings with five or more units use about half as much energy as other types of home. Lower energy use in apartments can be partially explained by their smaller living space. In addition, apartment units are bordered by other units or common areas on one or more sides and typically have fewer windows, limiting exposure to exterior temperatures.
Since 1980, per-household energy use in the larger apartment buildings has fallen by 38%, compared with declines of 15–32% for other types of home. Energy use per household has decreased across all home types, due to efficiency improvements in major equipment and appliances, despite increases in the average size of homes and in the use of electronics. Much of this decline in home energy use is attributable to reduced consumption for space heating, as equipment has become more efficient, population has shifted to warmer climates, and many homes now have better insulation and windows. Apartments in buildings with five or more units have seen the largest change in per-household energy use for space heating, which fell by 48% between 1980 and 2009. Households in the larger apartment buildings in 1980 consumed almost as much energy for space heating (42 million Btu) as was used for all purposes in 2009 (a total of 46 million Btu for space heating, water heating, air conditioning, and appliances).
learn more
Get more information about the EIA study.
Another way to examine household energy data is to look at energy use for a single year across homes built at different times. Overall, new homes consume about as much energy as older ones, but trends differ by home type. Households living in new (2000s) single-family homes use more energy than those living in older homes. For all other types of home, the reverse is true. When homes built in the 2000s are compared to those built in the 1970s, apartments in large buildings show the greatest decrease in per-household energy consumption. Households in large apartment buildings constructed in the 2000s consume 12% less energy than those built in the 1970s. Less energy is used by households in new apartments despite having more energy-consuming devices than older apartments—more A/C equipment, more major appliances, and more consumer electronics.
These comparisons of energy use are based on the amount of energy delivered to residences; they do not include energy lost in the generation of electricity that is used by households, which is part of the total amount of primary energy required to support site-level energy use.

A Funny Thing Happened…
It's ironic that Elizabeth Busch's brother is a comedian, because she missed the fact that a funny thing happened on the way to the South Carolina congressional race–all of a sudden, it's the Democrats that have become the screechy family values party, and it didn't go over well with the voters. It's hard to get a handle exactly on why Sanford's marital problems didn't seem to worry the voters. I think the answer is obvious–the voters generally like him. They generally didn't like her. That was enough. But when you listen to the voters, when asked about this issue, you start to discern another overtone. After the past twenty five years, the Democrats, not the Republicans, have begun to preach about the sanctity of marriage. It has happened in the context of marriage equality, in which the Democrats have harped on the fact that marriage is so important and vital that it should be available to everyone. And once you open the door to allowing people to define their own marriages and relationships in ways outside the norm, it becomes increasingly difficult to criticize any one else's marriage or marital choices. So when a candidate who wants to redefine marriage in a way which is not traditional starts to criticize Sanford for what he does within his own marriage, the voters begin to shake their heads and wonder where she's coming from.
Marriage equality has always been a strange issue. While it always attracted the American left as an equality cause, it has also long enjoyed support of the libertarian right, which rejects the right of government to intervene in what is, in all respects, a contractual relationship. During the past thirty years, the evangelical portion of the Republican Party has led the opposition to marriage equality, which has only served to mask the issue that these same evangelicals lined up behind Jimmy Carter in 1976. Evangelicals change their loyalty with their socks, but the core of the Republican Party has long been more concerned with fiscal matters than social matters. South Carolina, in particular, is not really an evangelical state and Republican Party is very pragmatic on social issues. As a result, Sanford's conduct doesn't necessarily offend Republicans, the evangelicals who are there recognize the concept of redemption of a moving force of life, and Busch looked like a librarian telling people to be quiet.
This race will need some scrutiny. It is evident that money and a name doesn't always buys a congressional seat, at least outside of New York and Massachusetts. I have never heard of her brother–apparently a lot of South Carolina residents didn't either. But it is also evident that money and a name won't do you any good if you don't understand the state in which you are running, the people who you want to represent and the politics which are in rapid flux.
